See Apilio boolean states when a task is tagged

Adding a tag can prompt Notis to fetch the current states of all your Apilio boolean variables, ready for a focused review.

Trigger

Tag Added to Task

Triggers when a tag is added to a task. Note: Asana's event structure is inverted for tag events — the resource is the task and the parent is the tag. So parent.gid gives the tag GID.

Action

Get Boolean Variables

Tool to fetch all boolean variables. use when you need the full list of boolean variables and their current states.

Why this helps

A tagged task may signal a need to check automation state, but manually finding the current values interrupts the task at hand.

  • Retrieves all boolean variables and their current states.
  • Uses a real Asana tag event as the review prompt.
  • Helps reduce repeated manual state checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Asana and Apilio once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in Automations, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve all Apilio boolean variables and their current states when a tag is added.
  • 4Pick the Asana Tag Added to Task trigger, then choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test by adding a real tag to a task and reviewing the report.

Questions about this workflow

Can I limit the result to the tag that was added?

The listed action retrieves all boolean variables. The event provides the tag GID as the parent, but the available action does not filter variables by tag.

Does this change any variable?

No. Action 850 fetches boolean variables and current states; it does not update them.
